Not many things in life are completely safe. The most important thing about ecgis is that they are a healthier alternative. How much safer than a regular cigarette? Most leading cardiologist would probably give you the following answer. If smoking has a risk of 100, then ecigs by comparison would be between 1 and 5 in comparison.

Nicotine has the same risk profile as caffeine. It's also not particular addictive (contrary to popular belief). Nicotine isn't toxic. Good point though - an ecig has exactly the same ingredients as other NRT products albeit fewer of then

That's a shame. I've been a smoker all my life (over 20 years ). Since using an ecig (3 years ago) I haven't touched a cig since. There's a lot of options out there though. General rule of thumb, the ones that look like a cigarette are usually pants. Get an ecig called an "ego", these work really well, and the chances are you'll never want to smoke again (also, use higher nic, i.e, 24mg or 36mg).

True. Although there has recently been a lot of research, and they all go to show that ecigs are a much healthier alternative to smoking (perhaps having the same risks as drinking coffee).
